WPS Mig

This document provides a welding procedure specification (WPS) for gas metal arc welding (GMAW) of carbon steel pipes. It specifies the joint design, base metals, filler metals, positions, preheat and interpass temperatures, shielding gas composition and flow rate, electrical characteristics, welding technique parameters, and approval signatures. The WPS allows for either short circuiting or spray transfer mode using ER70S-2 or ER70S-3 filler metal for single V-groove welds in all positions on carbon steel pipes from 1.6-22mm thick.
